Groups demanding exemptions from vaccines on religious grounds are gaining steam, even as health chief Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dials back his efforts.

NEW: The anti-vaccine movement's momentum has slowed. But a Supreme Court victory may be brewing, legal experts warn. Two anti-vaccine groups with close ties to RFK Jr. have spent nearly $50 million on legal services over the last decade. My latest @washingtonpost.com

Prof. @weparmet.bsky.social, key note in #CHLS2026's symposium on A Defining Moment for Vaccine Science and Policy in @slulaw.bsky.social: Consensus fracturing; but hope: most people want access to vaccines, and these conversations emphasize that we can protect future children from old diseases.

Today, Defend Public Health filed our second amicus brief in the lawsuit against RFK Jr. and his HHS for their harmful changes to vaccine recommendations. Shout out to our fearless legal leaders @weparmet.bsky.social, @doritreiss.bsky.social, and the DPH members who helped with the brief.

We filed an amicus brief in support of a lawsuit against RFK Jr. by the AAP and APHA, and the government tried and failed to get the suit tossed. A judge said no, citing our amicus brief. Much gratitude to @doritreiss.bsky.social and @weparmet.bsky.social for absolutely crushing it on this brief.

@defendpublichealth.bsky.social just submitted an amicus brief in district court in American Academy of Pediatrics v. Robert F. Kennedy Jr on federal vaccine policy. drive.google.com/file/d/1FEH-...

yes, it’s really that bad.

If new proposals detailed in an FDA memo are put into place, experts told me it would mean the end of annual flu shots. And end of most vaccines for pregnant people. And maybe the end of updates to pneumonia vaccines. And more. www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-va...

So Texas, which pioneered the Texas 2 step and has worked to shield companies from tort liability is now suing J&J for trying to shield itself from potential liability in Tylenol claims. Irony really is dead.

Enjoyed talking with the Boston Globe about the steps that Mass DPH took today to ensure that COVID-vaccines are available in the state. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/03/m...

Healey counters FDA, makes COVID boosters widely available in Mass. - The Boston Globe

Healey essentially wrote a prescription for COVID boosters for every person in the state over the age of 5.

Looks like it will be next to impossible to get COVID vaccines in MA for weeks or even months unless your MD will deliver them. For those of us at high risk without that option, well guess we're out of luck or have to become vaccine tourists. Thanks RFK. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/w...

Just learned - maybe others knew - that there are (almost) no COVID vaccines available anywhere. The old ones have been pulled; the new ones not approved. My MD said I need it, but I can't get it. Thanks RFK!
